If you have a dog, Maple Ridge has an excellent off-leash dog park at the Albion Fairgrounds. When some human activities are on, though, this park may or may not be closed while the event is on, so check ahead. Live music and agricultural events are held at the fairgrounds, and the space also has sports fields.
